The handy hardware hackers at Engadget have put together an extensive tutorial for using your EV-DO pocket PC phone with your laptop (Windows or Mac).

Engadget is using a Verizon phone (XV6700), but they claim that most of the techniques are applicable to other EV-DO devices. The post covers connecting via USB on a Windows computer and Bluetooth on a Mac. Gina recently covered using your cell phone as a modem from a similar angle using her Sprint schwag, but if that method didn't work out for you, you might want to give Engadget's post a look. — Adam Pash
